It is covalent.
Ionic bonds only form between two different elements with a larger difference in electronegativity. O2 contains two atoms of the same element, so there is no difference in electronegativity.
Oxygen gas (O2) is covalently bonded. O=O One sigma and one pi bond.
Ionic bond example: Sodium (Na) and Chlorine (Cl) form an ionic bond in sodium chloride (NaCl) by transferring an electron from sodium to chlorine. Covalent bond example: Hydrogen (H) and Oxygen (O) form a covalent bond in water (H2O) by sharing electrons between the two atoms.
no
K2O forms an ionic bond. In the compound, potassium (K) donates an electron to oxygen (O) to form K+ and O2- ions, resulting in the attraction between the positively and negatively charged ions that makes up the ionic bond.
Br2 is a covalent compound. It consists of two bromine atoms sharing electrons to form a covalent bond.
No, O2 has a covalent double bond.

The F-F bond (in F2) is covalent, and non polar covalent at that.
No, it is ionic
